Imagine having a life filled with joyful moments in nature, only to have it derailed by addiction. This episode of The Adam & Julie Podcast dives into Jerry Adams' heartfelt testimony, showcasing his journey from the depths of addiction to a place of recovery and redemption. Jerry recounts his childhood memories of fishing trips and outdoor adventures, which later contrasted sharply with his struggles with alcohol and gambling.
As Jerry's addiction deepened, he found himself drifting away from his faith and family.

This episode is a moving reminder that no matter how far one may stray, there is always a way back.
Jerry's testimony is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about the power of faith, the importance of family, and the strength found in community support.
